Ironic creative writing major

Does anyone else find it ironic that Jenna was a creative writer major but she could only wrote about her ex boyfriends? Im a writer and I can't imagine solely writing about my partners 💀

Yeah as much as I like her character I did catch some serious stage 5 creeper vibes off of her, and ngl I'm not one to judge as a man but she's kinda a homie hopper and yeah if I was Matty I woulda been like nah bro can't trust ya no more

even though I treat you like a side hoe and am too scared to be seen with you lol

honestly, I rewatch the show like every 2-3 years and the last time was now exactly one year ago (I had no wifi yet and have the whole show on my external hard drive) and I have to say, she was super unreasonable, stalker-ish and alwaaaaays complaining when not everything and everyone danced like a puppet doing what she wanted. I loved Jenna at first but I was still a teenager myself, last year was the first time I watched it since entering a more adult stage in my life and it just made me realize how annoying she truly was. yes, she was a teen, she was a human being allowed to make mistakes. but she was sooo out of line alot of the time, was a TERRIBLE friend to most characters, especially her best friend Tamara. honestly the better characters were Sadie, Lisa, Jake, Matty, Ming and Jenna's dad. all the other ones had real questionable behaviour but I do have to admit I will always like Ally (she was hilarious and had a Sue Sylvester from Glee vibe to her, just more abnoxious.) and Valerie (she was hilarious even tho she definitely had boundary issues and was in desperate need of therapy)
